PSY-201: Final Paper Assignment
For our Final Paper Assignment, you will need to write about at least one major theory of development, one major theory of learning, and one major theory of motivation (there is a list of potential options on the next page). In addition to an introduction and conclusion, your paper should contain two major sections: A TEACH section and an APPLICATION section (worth 10 points each; 20 points total).
TEACH SECTION: In the first part of your paper, you will teach me the three theories you selected by discussing the related terms, concepts, and relevant history. Pretend that I know nothing about the theories, and therefore, you need to teach them to me by fully describing the related terms, concepts, and relevant history. This can be considered the research part of your paper and will require you to seek out additional sources of information and to cite those sources appropriately.
APPLICATION SECTION: In the second part of your paper, you must apply the theories you taught me to your own personal experiences. In short, you should tell me stories that apply the terms and concepts from the theories you selected. You can apply the information to your own past experience or hypothetical future scenarios. This can be considered the reflection part of your paper and will require you to produce original examples of the psychological concepts in action. YOU get to be the case study this time! How have these theories of development, learning, and motivation affected you as a learner? How will you actively make changes to how you approach learning (and/or teaching others)? Tell the story of you, the developing learner, being sure to specifically reference how the theories you selected can help us understand your personal experiences.
Your paper MUST be typed, double-spaced, and contain A MINIMUM of 2,000 words (this equates to roughly eight double-spaced pages). Your paper will be graded using the following rubric:
Criteria
Problematic
(0 to 3 points)
Progressing
(4 to 6 points)
Proficient
(7 to 8 points)
Perfection
(9 to 10 points)
TEACH
Section
Absence or misunderstanding of terms, concepts, and theories
Minimal use and understanding of terms, concepts, and theories
Moderate use and understanding of terms, concepts, and theories
Complete use and understanding of terms, concepts, and theories
APPLICATION
Section
Absence or misunderstanding of how the material can be applied
Minimal understanding of how the material can be applied
Moderate understanding of how the material can be applied
Complete
understanding of how the material can be applied
Additionally, you will be graded two points on your basic writing mechanics, structural organization, and clarity of writing. Altogether, this Final Paper Assignment is worth 22 points (i.e., 22% of your grade).
For the teach section, you should find at least three additional resources (one for each theory) to supplement your understanding (and therefore your teaching) of the theories you select. Your paper will be submitted through Turn It In which will check it for instances of plagiarism, so PLEASE be sure to cite the source of all unoriginal information that you share. You can use this Google Doc as a template for APA style.
Here is a list of the major reasons students lose points on their Final Paper Assignment:
They plagiarize. They do not cite their sources and therefore pass others ideas off as their own.
They overuse other authors exact words. Even if cited, its hard for me to assess your understanding of the material if much of your paper is just a copy/pasting of others work.
They did not cover enough content. Im expecting a MINIMUM of 2,000 words. Students with perfect scores tend to submit papers that are around 2,500+ words.
They do not successfully teach the terms, concepts, and relevant history from the selected theories. Theres too much general reflection of ideas without enough connection to the actual material.
They do not successfully apply the terms and concepts to their own experiences. They simply fail to apply the terms and concepts that were taught in the first part of the paper.
They submit a paper that lacks structure and doesnt flow well. Theres no formal introduction or conclusion, or the ideas are all over the place and dont follow a connected stream of thought.
I strongly recommend that you follow these steps in writing your paper: 1) Pick your theories, 2) Make an outline, 3) Write the teach section, 4) Write the application section, 5) Write your introduction and conclusion, 6) Proofread and revise, 7) PROOFREAD AND REVISE AGAIN, 8) Submit.
Heres a list of potential theories from each of the three sections:
Development
Learning
Motivation
Bronfenbrenners Bioecological Model, Eriksons Psychosocial Crises, Emotional Intelligence, Brain and Neural Development, Piaget and Vygotskys views
Classical Conditioning, Operant Conditioning, Social Learning, Information Processing (i.e., Memory), Metacognition, Problem Solving
Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation, Expectancy-Value Theory, Goal Theory, Attribution Theory, Self-Efficacy Theory, Self-Worth Theory, Self-Determination Theory
This Final Paper Assignment is due by the end of the day on Monday, December 21. You MUST upload either a Microsoft Word .docx or a .pdf file to ensure that the system can process your paper. If working in Google Docs (or some other word processor), PLEASE be sure to download/save as a .docx or .pdf first.

For your assignment this week, you will complete an additional step on your selected topic for the final project. This week you will gather another five scholarly sources that relate to the behavioral aspects of your topic. Please note that the topic you selected will determine what questions you will address from the two options listed below.
Option A: If you have selected a brain-based disorder,
Describe the symptoms of the disorder and how those symptoms are related to the brain structures that are involved.
Option B: If you have selected a brain process,
Discuss how the brain processes information to reach the behavior in question.

i. Additionally, you are expected to specifically discuss what causes crime based on the theory, and you should identify and discuss the key concepts and causal process associated with the theoretical framework.
b. You are also expected to discuss practical policy implications associated with the theoretical framework that are useful in reducing delinquent/criminal behavior.
c. Finally, you are expected to draw from current empirical literature which has incorporated tests of the theory and provide a brief overview of the current status of social learning theory within the context of delinquent involvement.
“In about 4 pages, explain what the chapters were about, what happened, and why it was important. The goal is not to analyze or talk about how you feel about it–just summarize it. Shoot for a sentence of yours for every paragraph of the original. USE YOUR OWN WORDS.
Refer to the Writing Summaries assignment attached. It explains how to annotate as you read on the first page and what is expected of all summaries on the second page.
in the course of your summary, be sure to answer the following questions: Explain the concept of deliberate practice. What is the advantage of using deliberate practice? Why does the quality of time on task make a difference in the level of success one achieves?

You are doing research on Paranoid Corp (PC).PC is a young, start up company. Currently, PCs cost of goods sold is 95% of their sales (so they have a 5% gross margin). PC is expected to grow rapidly and they will not need a lot of capital investment to fuel that growth. Given their low margin, most analysts believe that PC is overvalued but there is one analyst who thinks that PC is undervalued and has a much higher target price than other analysts. Given the information given in the question, what is the analyst that has the much higher target price likely assuming and why is that assumption valid?
Please answer two questions.
a. what is the assumption?
b. why is it valid?
Submit each case you will be using for your project, along with a summary of the case. The summary, at a minimum, must include the issue, the holding, and the lesson learned from each specific case. Global impact should also be included.
For example, if you are recruiting internationally, what potential legal issues does your employer need to be aware of to avoid potential disputes?
